states, accusing the united states of fostering terrorism worldwide, of being in an alliance with israel against egypt. this is very much sort of the standard rhetoric of the muslim brotherhood when you get down to, you know, their rank and file. this is the normal rhetoric that they speak of among themselves. but certainly what we've seen in the last 24 to 48 hours is an attempt by the leadership, for instance, we saw that letter published in the "new york times" from the number two in the muslim brotherhood saying that he's against the violation of diplomatic sanctity, that he expressed condolences of the death of the u.s. ambassador in libya. but when you talk to ordinary member of the muslim brotherhood, it's a completely different meage. >> another one of our courageous journalists. ben, please be careful yourself. >> now to that final journey home for the four americans killed in libya. joining suss robin wright, a joint fellow at the u.s. institute of peace and woodrow wilson center. she was a close personal friend of ambassador stevens. robin, such a sad day for all of us, especi
